Mexico Issues Travel Warning for Arizona Over Law
Business Week ^ | 4/27/2010 | Jonathan J. Levin and Catherine Dodge

Posted on 04/27/2010 1:14:54 PM PDT by SeattleBruce

April 27 (Bloomberg) -- Mexicans in Arizona should carry documentation and “act carefully” after the state passed a law requiring local police to determine the immigration status of anyone suspected of being in the country illegally, Mexico’s Foreign Ministry said.

The ministry said the warning is directed toward Mexicans living, studying or planning to travel to the southwestern U.S. state, which shares a border with northern Mexico, according to the e-mailed statement sent today. It comes as members of U.S. President Barack Obama’s administration said they have concerns about the new law and may seek to overturn it in court.

“There is an adverse political environment for migrant communities and all Mexican visitors,” Mexico’s ministry said. “It’s important to act carefully and respect the local laws.”

Perhaps Mexico is issuing this warning to the Cartels and other frequent “visitors” to the US. /S

Gee, maybe the f'ing Mexican government should ALWAYS have told its citizens to carry documentation and "act carefully" while in ANY foreign country? You know, following the rules and not committing crimes is just being POLITE, you a$$holes!

Before anyone accuses me of being a racist (which would be woefully inaccurate, as "Mexican" is not a race), my wife is from Mexico. She, unlike a lot of her ex-countrymen, actually obeyed the rules and is not merely a legal resident, but a citizen. She's gets much more hot under the collar about illegals and amnesty than I do, and that's saying something. Her hatred for the Mexican government burns so hot that it could melt an iceberg in about 5 minutes.

“What do I have to do to get one of these issued for Georgia???”

For starters, pass a law that actually enforces existing US immigration laws!

“Maybe the Mex gov should take a small look around them and see what’s going on in their own neighborhood.”

Issuing this warning about AZ was WAY easier than the ongoing battle against the Mexican drug lords... sad what’s going on there actually. Prayers for them to reign in the violent gangs. Reminds me (somewhat) of the war against the mafiosos in the 30s in Chicago.

Maybe if we started beheading people like the drug gangs in Mexico, they’d feel better about Arizona.

Wow. I’m with the comment that says “It worked”. It reminds me of the exchange with Bush ...

Journalist: “What message does it send to other countries to have the death penalty in Texas?”
Bush: “The message is, if you come to Texas, don’t kill anyone.”

Marco Rubio is 100% OPPOSED to amnesty.

Mark Levin is leading off with this. Updating Monster Ping.

Sharpton will help out any thugs:

Thug-0-crat hit list on Al Sharpton [several murder victims]
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/chat/2464640/posts?page=134#134

1987: Sharpton spreads the incendiary Tawana Brawley hoax, insisting heatedly that a 15-year-old black girl was abducted, raped, and smeared with feces by a group of white men. He singles out Steve Pagones, a young prosecutor. Pagones is wholly innocent — the crime never occurred.

1991: A Hasidic Jewish driver in Brooklyn’s Crown Heights section accidentally kills Gavin Cato, a 7-year-old black child. Sharpton rails against the “diamond merchants” [aka Jews]. Hundreds riot and surround rabbinical student, Yankel Rosenbaum, stabbing him to death.

1995: Sharpton whips up mob over a rent increase [note that the Jewish owner was forced into raising rent]. Infamous “White Interloper” speech. Protesters burst in and shoot four employees point-blank and set store on fire. Seven employees die in fire.

“You forget Jorge W BoooSH.”

Well Frantzie might have forgotten him, but I didn’t and won’t. I didn’t like W’s spending habits but his support for amnesty was the last straw for me.

One of the things that’s never mentioned in connection with amnesty is that once we make citizens out of the illegals, they lose their usefulness to their employers and a brand new set of illegals is required to maintain the advantage to the employer.

We need to find a way to go after the CHEATING employers and make them pay heavily for their dishonesty. We need to make the risk of employing an illegal so great that they won’t even risk it.

Only by doing that can we make sure that these jobs go to legal citizens, Hispanic and otherwise.

Don’t forget Marco Rubio - a Bush puppet and Mel Martinez 2. Rubio screwed up and showed he is for amnesty. He almost fooled everyone. He is a Bush klan puppet.

GW Bush really fooled us. He could have been a great one but he is just like Poppy. Another Yale/Ivy league one worlder like Poppy, Clinton, Gore, Obama, GW. All C-student elite one world moles. I actually think Clinton cracks some books. Obama probably never turned in a paper in any class.

Reagan was the last non-elite. As was Nixon and Ike.

Rubio needs to lose because he tried to con everyone. At least Crist is upfront about being a RINO.

“Rubio is pro-amnesty as I suspected.”

Please support this idea more fully. Certainly his rhetoric isn’t as strong as we’d like, but that doesn’t necessarily mean he’s pro-amnesty.

“So, if Zero goes to Arizona, is a law enforcement officer gonna ask for ID - like a COLB? What kind of ID does POTUS carry?”

LOL, it depends on which POTUS you’re referring to. This present one gets a total pass from the RAT propagandists, so regardless of what happened in that confrontation, only we’d know about it. I guess it would get a lot of press if they deported him to Kenya...or Indonesia...or ?? LOL.
